Well, the first day we didn't do so well. We lost pretty badly to the state champions. We probably could have done better.
The second game was a disaster. We played a team we could have easily beaten. We even got them down to playing with only four players, because the rest of them fouled out. And, with only four players, they still outscored us! Embarrassing. So... they won. Saying this as humbly as I can, I think personally, I did okay. I even took a blockbuster charge. ^.^ But teamwise, we were especially lacking in passing skills and defense. I could rant about our defense all day (since it's kinda my specialty). So it dissappointed me that we lost that one.
But the next day we did great. Beat the first team by around twenty, I think. I got to take a lot of shots. Unfortunately, they just weren't going in that day. Not much to say about that game, except we did well.
The second game was just as good. We played well even though, for some reason, the the other team was fouling us all over the place, but the reffs weren't calling anything. One of the girls on the other team even wrapped her arms around one of ours, holding her, and the reff called a foul on our girl! What!! I got to take three freethrows that game. I made one of them. My shots have been off lately. At one point, I tried to take a charge when one of them was going in for a layup. It made her miss her shot, but the reff didn't call anything. He explained that it could have been called so many different ways. Personally, I thought it was a travel on her part. She took, like, four steps when she was running into me. But I can't complain, since the ball went out of bounds, and we got the possession anyway. We won that one by a little more then twenty, I think.
All-in-all, I think it was a good tournament.
It is the infirmity of little minds to be dazzled with everything that sparkles.
